Army Leadership, Regulations, And Soldier Wellness Practice Test

The second general order centers on obedience to any special orders for the post and performing every duty in a military manner. This captures the expectation that a sentry follows the unique instructions given for that assignment and carries out duties with discipline, professionalism, and proper bearing. Special orders tailor what you do at that moment and context, while a military manner means acting promptly, precisely, and in accordance with established standards—no improvisation or laxness. The other statements pertain to different general orders: guarding the post and leaving only when relieved belongs to the first general order; reporting violations or emergencies not covered in instructions to the relief commander belongs to the third general order; saluting officers and colors not cased belongs to the fourth general order.
